It took a late goal from Anthony Stokes to secure Celtic’s win at Tannadice in August. That led to a five match unbeaten run for Dundee United, which ended two weeks ago at Pittodrie before Inverness knocked 10-man United out of the League Cup on Tuesday with a 120th minute goal.
Jackie McNamara has stabilised his team and they are likely to finish in the top three this season, but the defeat on Tuesday, which led to a storm of controversy over the behaviour of Nadir Ciftci, will be a major challenge ahead of United’s trip to Celtic Park. The champions should win comfortably.
There was little glibness evident in The Herald’s sombre interview with Dave King, published this morning. Despite apparently getting along famously with antagonists on either of Rangers International shareholding, he was unable to reach a deal, perhaps because he didn’t speak to the Organ Grinder behind the club playing in Rangers colours.
Indeed, neither King, nor anyone else trying to oust, or do a deal with, the current board, knows the ultimate beneficiary behind Blue Pitch Holdings et al. Is it you? It’s not me, but I suppose that’s what everyone is saying right now.
That question, is the only show in town.
King wrapped up his comments to The Herald by saying “Over the last two years we have all witnessed the destructive value when individuals, who should be putting the club first, advance personal agendas through the media in an attempt to influence the most important stakeholder in Rangers Football Club – the fans”.
Self-awareness is a rare thing.
Mr King is 100% correct on the destructive influence those who have divided his new favourite club have had. Without the modestly self-named Blue Knights causing ultimately unproductive havoc, Charles Green’s consortium would surely not have over-paid and under-charged, leading to the situation King believes could lead to administration. The question now for those on the outside is, do they have the votes, or are they just peeing on the Broxy Bear Burgers?

Which fat dumplin will we shift, well I’ve got shares in gregs so the lamb lickspittle make less impact on the share price. No brainer

Just wondered if you agreed? Will catch your reply when I return.
Jabba statement (allegedly)
I refuse to stay with a company who continue to employ an individual that eats more PIES than me .

Traynor gone?
Oh dear. How sad. What a pity. Never mind.
Jabba will know what’s going on with the current set up, and was probably leaning towards murray / mccoll….had to go…..what a beautiful mess…!!!!!!!!
Hmmm…Jabba claiming the first life boat? Or was he about to be keel hauled from the bow of HMS Bigot.

Jabba Walky. What a headline. Copyright it quick.
Jabba. A man who will know just where the bodies are buried. How much is the sound of silence?

Thanks bud. Going along to see what Mr Ladbroke is offering.

The original plan was to go to the Bowling club. It’s now the Kerrydale suite. We can do the bowling club another week. Hope you can come to the Kerrydale suite?
You can still wear your Flannels and blazer. We’ll know who you are!
News reaches me tonight that Jim Traynor has parted company from Sevco FC to spend more time with Gordon Smith’s parents.
For whatever reason he left he certainly wasn’t pushed!
Heeeeeeeeeeaaave
These articles are always good but they do make my head hurt a little. IS it Craig Whyte that owns Blue Pitch Holdings or whatever you call it?
Or is it me? I’d like to know. If it is me I want to sell the whole thing for development as I have heard that there is no money to be made in football full stop (despite what McColl was, erm, kind of, eh, ‘explaining’ about the great potential for NuRangers to make money on SSN last night) except in getting hold of stadia and facilities really cheap, paying yourself and pals massive salaries for doing not much and when it all ends selling the bricks and mortar to the highest bidder. Aye, if it is me that is what I am doing.

Brilliant :O)

Seeya..
One FFer’s not to be consoled:
“I, for one, am very sorry to hear this news. Jim Traynor is a very genuine football man and he was persuaded – just like Walter Smith – to come to the club with the belief that he would be able to assist the club on its journey back to where it rightly belongs [Think he succeeded there]. The sad fact, however, is that just like Walter Smith he was sold a pup and was just not allowed to do the job that he wanted to do. I wish him well and predict that he will not be short of people who would like to employ him.”
Please let wee Chick fill the vacancy.
He is the ideal candidate.
Jim Traynor has left to pursue his real passion in life, following another NuClub – Airdrie FC.
No other existing club will have him. He has been nicknamed ‘Titanic Hunter’ for his jinx like attachment to sunken ship football clubs. Either that or he is going to be a bakery critic – first artilce ‘They’re all good, even the bad ones, scoff scoff scoff’.
Does anyone find it a delicious irony that the Communication from Sevco for Jabba oot is extraordinarily brief.
“RANGERS today announce that Director of Communications James Traynor has left the Club.”
That’s it…. nothing else… its such a kicking. No more lamb for you, mutton chops.
Shame isn’t it ?
HaventstoppedlaughingatjabbasdemiseCSC
When will Jabba be getting his pulitzer for the many classics he has churned out while in the hot seat at Piebrox? That’ll show Timmy.

You better watch what you say in case Jabba turns cannibal ,with your moniker you could be a target for his addiction
HH
Wonder if Jabba is subject to a gagging order?
Will the AyeBrokes budget cover a basketball and a bungee?
